Of you’re in private trackers, you’ll find that hard. Instead, seed for a long time and use the points to purchase upload credit.

point’s? Just uploaded a screen shot of uploads. Why are they not all uploading?

In private trackers, it can be difficult to find enough leechers to upload more than you download. Most of yhe content will be sitting there with many people seeding compared to how many people are trying to download.
To balance the system, private trackers will give you points for the amount of time spent seeding. You use the points to purchase upload credit to keep your ratio up.
If you’re using public trackers (that you can access without an account) then this doesn’t apply. If you’re struggling to upload enough then it’s probably that you aren’t contactable. To transfer, one of the parties needs their port forwaded to create the connection. If you have yours forwarded you can share with anyone, if you don’t then you can only share with peers that have their port forwaded.

Where do you get these points?

Private trackers are private, you need account and to get an account you generally need an invite. If you don’t know anyone who can invite you then you can watch reddit.com/r/OpenSignups for trackers allowing applications for access.
